    Im going to give you a tip for driving in the winter. Remember you are driving on ice even if it does not look like it. Slow down and remember that Reindeer and Moose like to use roads because it is very easy to walk around on them. Always have extra clothes in the car when you drive because if your car break down in -35c you will be dead within an hour or two. Stay dry when working outside during cold weather. That means working slower so you don't sweat a lot. Also have a snow shovel and an axe in the car during winter. It has saved me many times when I have gotten stuck with my car in the snow. (Axe is for chopping down branches of Pine or Fir to put between your tires and the ice/snow.)

    • @swedmiroswedmiro1352
      @swedmiroswedmiro1352 3 года назад +19

      Ohh...and the car engine coolant. See to it that you have additives in it so it does not freeze up on you. Up there I could recommend that you have coolant that can withstand -30c.
      Also if you don't have one. Engine-block heater is a must for the car.

    I grew up near where you live now (I live in Umeå now). I don't know if anyone told you about the black plastic bags that people put on the orange plow sticks? The sami population put those black bags on the sticks so you know where the reindeers are currently searching for food. So if you see a black plastic bag - slow down.

    Hi Naomi and Jack! Recently I had a hiking accident and broke both bones in my right leg (ouch!), which forced me to stay home. That plus the impossibility to travel this year due to COVID, I started to watch travel-related videos on YT and came across one of yours and immediately subscribed to your channel. In two weeks I binge watched all of your content! I love your videos and I love how being so young both of you are so mature for your age. Thank you for sharing so many possitive things and your beautiful new home and country. Keep up the great work! Bye for now from Alabama, USA.

    My wife’s family is from exactly that area +- a few km. I totally love it any time of the year. The winters range from very cold to very very cold :-) (coldest i’ve experienced there was -43C) with crispy hard snow that qives a nice sqeeky sound when you walk on it. It can be quite harsh but you will have many beautiful days and nights with a lot of aurora borealis. Listen to your local friends experience and you will learn to appreciate it. A tip is to get a reindeer skin/fur and you will never freeze when sitting on what ever nature offers you. I like your spirit in doing this. Keep up the good work.

    One tip I can give that I've heard about is, in case your car breaks down and you're stuck in the cold, to make sure you have a big package of "tealights" (värmeljus) in your car and a lighter. It won't be much, but lighting a couple (like 3-5) at a time will help to keep the heat up in the car for some time until help arrives. It will still get below 0, but any heat source will feel like heaven in such a situation :)

    Yes, I too have hit the Like button and subscribed. My ancestory is from Sweden. So when I watch each of your videos I think of how it would have been if my Great Grandparents and Grandparents had stayed in Sweden. How I wish I could be there. Loved how you quoted out of the Book of Ecclesiastes. May the Lord continue to Bless you both and watch over you in ALL that you do for His Glory. I have many Swedish Recipes, would you like for me to share them with you, so you can share them with your good friends in Sweden. Of course the Swedish Meatballs, Swedish Pancakes, the way they were made over 200 years ago. Love and hugs, Lisa Peterson Tesch

    I really like your videos. I also live in the north of Sweden. So just saying; being introvert is a good thing when you live up here! The winter is yet to come and you have done well in preparing for winter. But to really live through a winter is hard to understand before you done it. Swedes in the south don’t understand. So ask neighbours and friends for help if you need to. If you ask you will get help, that is how it is in the north, you help. But they may not say that before you ask. So good luck to you both! Thumbs up!

    Hello from the US (Georgia)! In my frustration with COVID and the US Elections, I was daydreaming about escaping to Europe and binge watching Escape to the Country from the UK. Those videos led to videos on househunting in Germany and then I found your video about buying your beautiful little home in Sweden!! I was hooked instantly and binge watched your whole new adventure, along with some of your wedding videos. I am so absolutely charmed by your videos, by your relationship with each other, and by your sense of wonder at the world. You both seem like truly lovely people and I look forward to your weekly video posting. Congratulations on finding a way to live your life with both purpose and peace. You guys are an inspiration!

Working on your home was making me so tired but I can see the two of you were enjoying every moment of it. I live in the United States and I am 77 years old but watching your videos give me such joy and it just makes my day I can’t wait to look for another new updated video from you guys. The both of you are absolutely wonderful and I will become a supporter. The scenery is absolutely beautiful. As soon as the Covid-19 is under control I will be traveling throughout Europe again hope one day to run into the two of you

    Naomi & Jack, beware the snow is coming! The forecast is for 30cm tonight.
    The first snow is always nice but just wait until late April when the snow has finally melted away giving place for green grass and delicate spring flowers, then you will wake up one morning and the ground is once again covered in 10cm snow. It wont be cute anymore you will go "Whom is responsible for this" and "I will start make some phone calls" :-)

If you guys don't know her yet.. there's a lovely Swedish woman who makes beautiful content, her name is Jonna Jinton. I've been following her for quite some time but I always missed to have info on how it is to move to Sweden as a foreigner. I love discovering your channel at the beginning of your journey and look forward to being part of your adventure. I'll watch the adds so it'll bring some money in! Wishing both of you an amazing time in Sweden and I am looking forward to how you will experience the winter!

(he's been married twice and i been married once and we don't want to get married again) we are very happy with the way our arrangement is. so it's all good. enjoy life is the bottom line and why try to fix something that is not broken.

    I COMPLETELY 100% understand the introverted thing, I am 24 from Jamaica and I really enjoy being around family and friends and hosting but I also enjoy being by myself, maybe a bit more, to the point where I will take off- and I mean disappear into my own bubble and not speak to anyone for weeks. I do understand how the people I care about would feel and sometimes get frustrated by this, hence, it really is a battle in my mind because I care and love them but I also value my alone time.
    I randomly stubbled upon your channel and I really enjoy your videos they make me see life in a part of the world that I am very interested in and is so different from my own country, that I would love to visit or possibly live one day, also I feel like that part of Sweden is like introvert heaven lol, your channel is GOLDEN and both it and the business will flourish because you are manifesting and putting in the time and effort and it also helps that you guys seem like genuinely good people that are trying a ting and creating a life together and are building a cute little community on here. Big up yourselves and I am wishing you two the very best!

    I just love these videos. My husband and I are also introverts, me more than him. We can sit and read in the same sofa for hours without talking. A partner is the one you can be silent with for hours and feel energized by.
    I hope you will go to Galtis next to Arjeplog this winter and try some winter sports. Cross country skiing can be very meditative in the forest. I learned downhill skiing in Galtis when I was three and have many happy memories from that mountain.
    Also, random fact: 7.7% of Arvidsjaur kommun area is water :D
